- Associations of frailty with health care costs - results of the ESTHER cohort study Publicado el 06/05/2016 por Diana Gosálvez Prados
-
The concept of frailty is rapidly gaining attention as an independent syndrome with high prevalence in older adults. Thereby, frailty is often related to certain adverse outcomes like mortality or disability. Another adverse outcome discussed is increased health care utilization. However, only few studies examined the impact of frailty on health care utilization and corresponding costs. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate comprehensively the relationship between frailty, health care utilization and costs.

-
Smoking, alcohol consumption, poor diet and low levels of physical activity significantly contribute to the burden of illness in developed countries. Whilst the links between specific and multiple risk behaviours and individual chronic conditions are well documented, the impact of these behaviours in mid-life across a range of later life outcomes has yet to be comprehensively assessed. This review aimed to provide an overview of behavioural risk factors in mid-life that are associated with successful ...
ageing, dementia, disability, frailty, mid-life, risk factors - New drugs and patient-centred end-points in old age: setting the wheels in motion. Publicado el 21/12/2015 por Diana Gosálvez Prados
-
Older patients with various degrees of frailty and disability, a key population target of pharmacological interventions in acute and chronic disease states, are virtually neglected in pre-marketing studies assessing the efficacy and safety of investigational drugs.

-
The objective is to examine the patterns of health care utilization by the elderly and test the influence of functional decline.

-
Multimorbidity may be related to the supposed early aging of people with intellectual disabilities (ID). This group may suffer more often from multimorbidity, because of ID-related physical health conditions, unhealthy lifestyle and metabolic effects of antipsychotic drug use.
frailty, intellectual disability, mental health, multimorbidity - Construct validity and reliability of a two-step tool for the identification of frail older people in primary care Publicado el 06/02/2014 por Diana Gosálvez Prados
-
To study the reliability and construct validity of the EASY-Care Two-step Older persons Screening (EASY-Care TOS), a practice-based tool that helps family physicians (FPs) to identify their frail older patients.

-
Little is known about the contribution of frailty in improving patient-level prediction beyond readily available clinical information. The objective of this study is to compare the predictive ability of 129 combinations of seven frailty markers (cognition, energy, mobility, mood, nutrition, physical activity, and strength) and quantify their contribution to predictive accuracy beyond age, sex, and number of chronic diseases.

There is a concern about the accuracy of the available prognostic indexes when applying them to the emergent population of polypathological patients (PP).
frailty, mortality, multimorbidity, polypathology, prognostic index - Cognitive state as a conditioner of frailty in the elderly. Perspective from a health centre Publicado el 19/05/2010 por Diana Gosálvez Prados
-
AIM: To determine the influence of the cognitive state on the presence of different frailty factors in the elderly. METHODS: Study of an outpatient elderly population with chronic diseases (resident at home or institutionalised), the presence of different frailty risk factors and their relation to cognitive state (measured using the mini-mental state examination-MEC). RESULTS: Study of 147 elderly people with an average age of 71.4 years and a similar proportion of men (74; 50 ...
